Chicago Cubs star Ken Hubbs is found after the crash of his private plane
On February 15, 1964, the body of Chicago Cubs star Ken Hubbs is found after the crash of his private plane near Provo, Utah. The 22-year-old Hubbs, a newly licensed pilot, was at the controls of the Cessna 172 when it crashed on an ice-covered lake, killing him and his 23 year-old friend, Dennis Doyle. The Civil Aeronautics Board later rules that “faulty judgment” by Hubbs caused the crash. In 1962, Hubbs won the NLās Rookie of the Year Award and set a record by playing 78 consecutive errorless games.
